4.00We were not happy about the money grab last minute email telling us when we park in the parking lot they collect 10 bucks to park there. Some lady was waiting in her car to collect and wasn’t there when we left. (We weren’t familiar with the area so we were the perfect suckers ). The boat excursion was gentle and nice. We saw dolphins and experienced big waves at the inlet. We toured around the area and we found it very beautiful. We saw more dolphins and headed back in. All boat staff were friendly and informative. They really wanted to find us dolphins. Just what we paid for!
Beautiful tour.

3.00I used viator online to purchase two senior tickets and one younger adult ticket. The cost was $40.00 each for a total of $120.00. When I arrived at the dock, the ticket price sign said the senior ticket was $23.00 and young adult was $25.00. Total would have been $71.00 if bought there. Quite a markup!
Really enjoyed our first...

5.00Really enjoyed our first dolphin/sunset cruise. The captain was very knowledgeable about Destin history which I enjoyed hearing. The 2 young ladies helping were very interactive with the passengers , especially the kiddos! The sunset was beautiful and a multitude of dolphins were spotted. We will be back and next time we will bring our granddaughter!
Such an enjoyable trip!

5.00Cruise was great and everyone very friendly. However if we had purchase direct with cruise it would have been $15 dollars cheaper per guest, I guess because of off season.
Well done. Thanks for the memories 👍
